Galatasaray's Victor Osimhen to Have Knee Surgery

Victor Osimhen, the Nigerian striker for Galatasaray, has been confirmed to have suffered a left knee injury that will require surgery. The injury occurred during a UEFA Champions League match against VfB Stuttgart, where he sustained a strain in his left knee.

Subsequent MRI examinations revealed a loose body in the joint, necessitating medical intervention. Galatasaray announced that Osimhen will undergo arthroscopic knee surgery at Maslak Acıbadem Hospital, with the procedure being performed by the club’s doctor, Yener İnce.

As a result of this injury, Osimhen has been removed from the squad for the upcoming match against Amed S.F. The club is expected to provide updates on his condition and anticipated return to action following the surgery.

His absence is seen as a setback for Galatasaray as they continue their domestic and European campaigns.
